CROSS DOG

This made us smile pretty huge! We should probably get Brett to replace us when shows happen again, because he is in amazing shape and we have just become... shapes.

Yo! Mark here! During the lockdown I collaborated with longtime friends @bwcstudios (who plays guitar in @oldedoom, AND mixed our ‘Vigilante’ and ‘Hollow’ records), and @dancrafts (from the mighty @indianhandcrafts), as well as @kevinfarmerdrums (who is a new friend I got to know through this project), to create GRALE. Our remotely-recorded EP comes out on streaming platforms THIS FRIDAY! If you like huge riffs and crushing metal, you’ll be super into it. See you on Friday!

Hello. We’re sorry we’ve been neglecting our social media accounts. We’ve never been particularly good at selling our band. We’re not good sales people. We don’t aspire to be pop stars, and most of the bands who inspire us existed long before it was necessary to bombard you with daily content. We don’t want to annoy you. We don’t want to post a million pics from the same 3 photo shoots that took place before the pandemic began. We can’t play live, and we’re once again isolati...ng from each other until this lockdown is over. All that being said, we want you to know that the work and creativity hasn’t stopped. We’ve been digging deep into the wonders of technology and file sharing. We’ve been forced into a different type of writing style, which has helped shape some of our most interesting music yet. Holy shit this sounds pompous. I should wrap it up: Stay with us motherfuckers! When we come out on the other side of this horseshit, we’ll be stronger than ever! Thanks for (hopefully) caring more about our music than seeing our stupid faces on Instagram. -Mark Charles Rand Photo: @bryanreid

We wanna hang out with you! Tonight (Saturday Nov 28) on IG live at 8pm EST! Mark & Tracy will be talking gear & talking shit! Maybe you want to steal his secrets, or maybe you’d rather blast the comments with NERD! What the hell are you doing on a Saturday night these days, anyway? Seriously. Tell us.

TOMORROW (SATURDAY NOV 28) at 8PM EST MARK will be doing a GEAR TOUR and Q&A on INSTAGRAM LIVE! Tune in to watch this dork talk about his massive pedal board(s), amps, basses, and to steal all his TONE secrets! You got questions? He’s got long-winded and confusing answers! SEE YOU TOMORROW!

ICYMI we ripped a Cancer Bats cover from our jamspace! Peep the video here: https://youtu.be/XwWYZC5EiEg

The pandemic stopped us from playing with Cancer Bats, but it can't stop us from covering them in our jam space. Go listen to old school Bats right now! (After this. Watch this first. Obviously.)
